Privacy Policy

Your personal data – what is it?

“Personal data” is any information about a living individual which allows them to be identified from that data (for example a name, photographs, videos, email address, or address). Identification can be directly using the data itself or by combining it with other information which helps to identify a living individual. The processing of personal data is governed by legislation relating to personal data which applies in the United Kingdom including the General Data Protection Regulation (the “GDPR) and other legislation relating to personal data and rights such as the Human Rights Act.

Who are we?

This Privacy Notice is provided to you by Philippa Aldridge Fitness which is the data controller for your data.

Philippa Aldridge Fitness will process some or all of the following personal data where necessary to perform its tasks:

Where they are relevant to the services provided by us, or where you provide them to us, we may process information such as date of birth, your emergency contact’s name, phone number and their relationship to you, membership type/payment option.

The personal data we process may include sensitive or other special categories of personal data such as, mental and physical health, details of injuries, medication/treatment received.

Photographs (separate written permission will be obtained before publishing any photos);

How we use sensitive personal data

We may process sensitive personal data including, as appropriate:

Information about your physical or mental health or condition in order to take decisions on your fitness to participate in class activities and comply with insurance and/or legal requirements.

These types of data are described in the GDPR as “Special categories of data” and require higher levels of protection. We need to have further justification for collecting, storing and using this type of personal data.

We may process special categories of personal data in the following circumstances:

­In limited circumstances, with your explicit written consent.

­Where we need to carry out our legal obligations.

Less commonly, we may process this type of personal data where it is needed in relation to legal claims or where it is needed to protect your interests (or someone else’s interests) and you are not capable of giving your consent (for instance if you had a medical emergency in class we may need to share it with the emergency services), or where you have already made the information public.

Do we need your consent to process your sensitive personal data?

In limited circumstances, we may approach you for your written consent to allow us to process certain sensitive personal data. If we do so, we will provide you with full details of the personal data that we would like and the reason we need it, so that you can carefully consider whether you wish to consent.

Philippa Aldridge Fitness will comply with data protection law. This says that the personal data we hold about you must be:

Used lawfully, fairly and in a transparent way.

Collected only for valid purposes that we have clearly explained to you and not used in any way that is incompatible with those purposes.

Relevant to the purposes we have told you about and limited only to those purposes.

Accurate and kept up to date.

Kept only as long as necessary for the purposes we have told you about.

Kept and destroyed securely including ensuring that appropriate technical and security measures are in place to protect your personal data to protect personal data from loss, misuse, unauthorised access and disclosure.

We use your personal data for some or all of the following purposes:

Sharing your personal data

This section provides information about the third parties with whom Philippa Aldridge Fitness may share your personal data. These third parties have an obligation to put in place appropriate security measures and will be responsible to you directly for the manner in which they process and protect your personal data. It is likely that we may need to share your name and contact details, emergency contact details, membership type/payment option with some or all of the following (but only where necessary):

Our agents, suppliers and contractors. For example, we may ask a commercial provider to publish or distribute newsletters on our behalf, or to maintain our database software;

How long do we keep your personal data?

We will keep some records permanently if we are legally required to do so. We may keep some other records for an extended period of time. For example, it is currently best practice to keep financial records for a minimum period of 8 years to support HMRC audits or provide tax information. We may retain data in order to defend or pursue claims. In some cases the law imposes a time limit for such claims (for example 3 years for personal injury claims or 6 years for contract claims). We will retain some personal data for this purpose as long as we believe it is necessary to be able to defend or pursue a claim. In general, we will endeavour to keep data only for as long as we need it. This means that we will delete it when it is no longer needed.
